Stupid is as stupid does.

It’s not a dev tool, it’s designed to force you to stay with the Windows environment by trying to regularise users to a proprietary intermediary management system.

So more unnecessary middle man trash designed to tie users more permanently to their OS choice. Nothing new then.

Why wouldn’t they, it’s not like anyone is making them act differently.

Lmao

Self awareness isn’t your strong suite either. Lmao.

Yes, you are.

Yes, you do get to be wrong. I’m perfectly OK with that.

Sure I do, what is art is subjective, ergo anything someone calls art is art, whether you like it or not. So instead of having a sook go look at a pretty picture.

It is, because you don’t get to decide what is and isn’t art. I know you’re not OK with this, too bad.

What does air smell like?

The corpos will get rid of copyright when it becomes inconvenient. Like when they want to use copywritten data to train AI models.

You can lead a troglodyte to knowledge but you can’t make them think.

I’ve got a better argument but it won’t hold up in court. If a company is making a profit then all costs of production, operation, and provision have been covered, every single shareholder from the individual worker to the CEO to the suppliers have all been paid adequately and fairly for their contribution, the consumers with the means and ability to contribute have, and I thank them for enabling the ability to socialise access to the product for the rest of the society that propped up the corporation so that it could produce.

If you want to argue that suppliers, producers, and workers haven’t been adequately and fairly compensated for their contribution then why is there a profit margin?

In fact, it’s morally acceptable to socialise the benefits and production of any corporation making a profit, though the law has this pesky tendency to call it theft.

Are you free to learn or consume as necessary for your survival from the society you’re expected to grow to support? No? Then you have a need to pirate.

I am an anti-theist. I am a follower of Jesus mythos. In the words of Mahatma Gandhi - “I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.”

A Middle-Eastern Jewish Socialist walks into a marketplace…

As long as a company is making a profit all costs have been covered, all employees, suppliers, and producers have been paid. Those in society who have the means and the will have ensured this product exists and has been paid for and I thank them for their contribution. That allows the rest of humanity to enjoy the socialisation of their contribution to the masses, who have not the means or the will, but who ensure the rest of the system is available and working to support everyone’s ability to contribute.

If you want to argue that employees, suppliers, or producers aren’t adequately paid, then why is there a profit margin?

I used to do this with my arms, I’d spend hours rubbing my fingers over my upper arms for pimples or anything similar. The excessive touching would inevitably cause more pimples, more squeezing and picking, more skin damage and scarring.

I stopped eventually in my late 20’s but it takes effort. Awareness is key. Try to be mindful when you do it. When you catch yourself, don’t beat yourself up, just recognise that you were doing it, remind yourself that it is damaging, remind yourself that you want to stop, and then stop doing it. Then do it again when you start doing it again.

You won’t succeed immediately and that is fine. This isn’t about hating yourself for your own behaviours or inability to act differently. This is about taking the active steps to train yourself not to act the way you have. It could take 6 months or a year, doesn’t matter as long as you try. It’s a behavioural addiction like any other that takes awareness and willingness to change.
